keep getting bootloops with the 1.78 kernel version , ve tried both methods of installing, i have the kernel that came with 2.4.0 installed , is there something else we have to do
[HTC Sensation] lamecake:
Did you try;

- Boot into recovery

- Installing the 0.1.0 Faux kernel modded by Baad from the 2nd post

- Installing the 1.76ghz version right after

- Wiping cache + dalvik cache

- Reboot
[HTC Sensation] tigerz0202:
no didnt try that , i thought it was included in the Rom ...thanks will try
[HTC Sensation] umd:
Does any of you guys experience force close on PowerAMP or PlayerPro when you hit the menu key? It's not related to this rom or faux kernel but just wanted to ask.
[HTC Sensation] nbicho:
That's odd, on mine it's fine as you can see in the screenshot.

Try to wipe cache and dalvik cache and flash it again.

To revert on stock you can flash the rom again without wipe so that it keeps your data untouch

Or just extract framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk from 2.4.0 zip and with some explorer push the first to /system/framework/ and the second to /system/app/ give permissions to both and reboot
[HTC Sensation] lollo1927:
Hello everyone, i'm feeling this wonderful rom, and i must say that it is fast and fluid, just wanted to ask information from the kernel of faux 0.1.0 GHZ 1:56 i can flash it with no problems, i ask this because i am with other ROM black screen when I receive phone calls.

Thanks and congratulations for the excellent rom...
[HTC Sensation] darkblak:
No - I don't have any of those issues with PowerAmp.
[HTC Sensation] spdrosin:
Thanx for the answer. False alarm. Ok I had my battery fully charged, but I did not expect to be at 100% after 1 hour on standby and some phone "playing".

I think the battery drain is too good to be true. ;)
[HTC Sensation] HashTagHell:
Anyone care to share their overclock settings with the new kernel? Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] vincepg13:
Default with no oc app. Fauxs kernel is very good at doing its own thing

Solution (?) for slow GPS fix:

If you, like me, have had trouble with slow (several minutes every time) GPS fix you can try adding these lines to "/etc/gps.conf"

NTP_SERVER=0.europe.pool.ntp.org

NTP_SERVER=1.europe.pool.ntp.org

NTP_SERVER=2.europe.pool.ntp.org

NTP_SERVER=3.europe.pool.ntp.org

and remove the line "NTP_SERVER=north-america.pool.ntp.org" (unless you're located in NA of course).

You can also add servers for your country in addition to the lines above.

So for Sweden, where I live, the additional servers would be:

NTP_SERVER=0.se.pool.ntp.org

NTP_SERVER=1.se.pool.ntp.org

NTP_SERVER=2.se.pool.ntp.org

NTP_SERVER=3.se.pool.ntp.org

This seems to have solved my GPS fix problem and I can even get an accurate fix from my basement now. But I tried a couple of other things too so I'm not sure if these lines in "gps.conf" or something else solved the issue. Couldn't hurt trying though if you have GPS problems.
[HTC Sensation] HashTagHell:
Thanks. That'll work.

Hi. What is the way to install this ROM? Boot into recovery, wipe and select zip from SD card ... I try this way and is stuck from 15 minutes now.

Hi guys,

What is the differenz between stock kernel and faux?

Zoom Zoom

This baby rocks will see how the battery holds up ---smooth as silk you are on Top of your game for sure ---I have flashed most of the sense builds and this one is by far the smoothest I have seen imho ----you rock
[HTC Sensation] Straightflush:
I think there may just be a problem with battery calibration for you, next time you get your phone to 100% just boot to recovery and clear battery stats. See if it goes down normally then.
[HTC Sensation] nbicho:
@baad

I've flashed again 2.4.0 and 2.4.1 after full wipe and the result was the same, no sms.

Then tried to flash only 2.4.0 to see if it was because of the update, but same issue.

So restore my 2.3.5 BETA backup and flash 2.4.1 on top and everything is ok, sms and weather locations (which wasn't working on 2.3.5 BETA)

Just to let you know, maybe it happens with someone else the sms issue on 2.4.0

Anyway, your ROM is the best :D
[HTC Sensation] mariusares:
So install true recovery or true Rom manager. Thanks
[HTC Sensation] nbicho:
I prefer to do it on recovery, but it's up to you

[HTC Sensation] neuralboy:
Baad Asssss!

Baad,

IC 2.4.1 is the bom! Smooth with added eye candy.

I have a question about benchmarks....(not about pissing contests :)

I had to wean myself off the idea of linking benchmark scores to how well a ROM operates because there is NO DOUBT this rom is No.1 on the forum.

What's the disconnect with the benchmark apps and their giving that other guys rom the scores they do when I've not once been able to get one of his versions to run smoothly on my phone?

Anyway - don't actually bother to answer that one coz like I say - it doesnt matter because what I didn't add is that they have to use the modded kernels to get those stats and yours hits the high marks too on the same playing field.

My actually question (s) with the faux kernel 0.10 V2 - is that V2 an adjustment from you or his change (o.k. looks like you already answered that one p485), and...I know his kernels fly and are getting better and better but....what is your take on the battery usage?

Is it still a trade off for speed or is the battery catching up (specifically with the 1.5 version)?

Thanks for your work!
[HTC Sensation] invisiblebm:
Hi baad. Which kernel do yo prefer? With Faux kernel the phone is getting hot.

[HTC Sensation] sly5789:
Great job again by Baad. This rom is running smoothly. I just flashed it on top of 2.3.1 and clear cache and dalvik cache and had no problems. I decided to go balls out instead of stock kernel and flashed Faux 0.1.0 KERNEL. So far so good. Only thing is I know there is other camera mod apps that allows you to change bitrate. Not interested in ErosizeD's camera mod right now because of the UI.

I don't remember but I had used a panorama camera app before from your posting and I like being able to change the bitrate. Only reason I ask is that it also recorded in MP4 format instead of 3gp. I know 3gp is only a container but would have been nice to have video record in MP4 format on this rom. I really don't care for the panorama settings cause the stitching really sucks. If anyone knows how to change the video camera format to record in MP4 or able to change the bitrate that would be great.
[HTC Sensation] spdrosin:
Οk. I 'll check this out to be sure. Thanx. ;)

I noticed yesterday some sudden drops too. :confused:

Did you install 2.4.0 before installing 2.4.1? 2.4.1 is an incremental patch!
[HTC Sensation] d-iivil:
For some reason I get constant hangups (black screens, reboots) with any of these "full roms" like insertcoin, arhd, leedroid etc. This has happened since the bases were updated to 234 and it happens with stock and custom kernels.

However I have seen zero hangs or reboots with stripped roms like the beast, superlite etc. Bad thing is that they are all but uggly with their modded themes.

Any advice master badneewz on how to debug the cause of those hangs and reboots?
[HTC Sensation] wcoast:
Thanks stevejau for the update, what’s the advantage updating to 5.0.2.0, I’m still on 4.0.1.4
[HTC Sensation] baadnewz:
i think it might be a memory problem, format /system a couple of times, see if it gets any better
[HTC Sensation] stevejau:
5.0.2.0 was updated as some users lost root on 5.0.1.0, what are the advantages over 4.0.1.4 ? No idea.

Why install it? cause we can and we all like new things.. he he , thats what we do..we flash things...and not from behind raincoats either..well, some might.
[HTC Sensation] lamecake:
Yes, problems with market here also. Auto restore did not work, also not able to download some paid apps. Downloading some free apps and rebooting a couple of times helped.
[HTC Sensation] Smiffyboots:
I randomly get this issue as well. I just go in to apps and clear the market cashe and data. Market then works for a while, if it stops I just wipe it again. It's a little annoying but certainly not a deal breaker. Love this rom :)
[HTC Sensation] baadnewz:
hey with old 2.3.6 market those problems weren't there but when in beta it was the old market users cried about restoring not working and market wasn't nice. there is a reason new market is not official yet.. you found it the hard way. i use the old market on my phones and i'm happy
[HTC Sensation] artymarty:
The 5.x series has one advantage - nandroid backup is a hell of a lot faster...

For me, that alone makes it worthwhile

Hey baad, I have the stock radio for the 1.35.401.1 rom (10.43.9007.00U_10.51.9007.27_M3) and am not having any issues with it. The thread you referred to for the alternate RIL files doesn't have these as yet for my radio (I have requested them). Do you suggest holding off until I have the correct RIL files or should I give 1.2 a twirl anyhow?
[HTC Sensation] baadnewz:
as i mentioned before, recommend radio is just a recommendation. You can flash the rom just fine
[HTC Sensation] ClydeB1:
Thanks I did see that but that was also before you changed the ril files in the rom, and I also saw you saying that the radio ril combination is a delicate matter which can affect radio signal and data speeds etc. Will give it a go thanks for the response.

Flashed todays ROM, coming from stock.

I like the ROM, for a ton of reasons, but did find one compatibility issue:

Installing Weixin (Chinese Whatsapp-like app) causes the phone the freeze up and reboot shortly after Weixin loads. (Fortunately it stayed alive long enough for me to do an uninstall through adb.)

battery life!!

I installed version 1.1 , full wipe, installed recommended radio, all in hope that battery life would improve and to my disapointment I still have 4% loss per hour in standby with only google account and facebook for sense sincing every 4 hours.

Also did all the recommended tips for battery stated in OP.

I was excepting more from 2.3.4 android because it was said that is more optimised for dual core phones.

As for the speed i dont see any difference at all.I sure hope that soon we will have this ROM with abillity to install custom undervolted kernels .

Anyway thx for the good and stable ROM.
